    27 Nosler N570 load data

    Sounds like a good plan! I can’t help you with a reamer unfortunately as I’m a world away,hopefully someone on here can point you in the right direction.

    27 Nosler N570 load data

    I tried both just to see if there was any difference ,nosler brand 26 necked up and Bertram 28 nosler brass necked down,both shot the same.

    27 Nosler N570 load data

    I have just switched over to 170’s in my 27 nosler,I had no luck with n570,n560 or h-1000. Retumbo looked promising but RL33 worked the best for me. I used 26 nosler brass and Bertram 28 nosler brass for all load testing and found no discernible difference in either type of brass.

    27 nosler brass

    It’s a 9 twist,the throat is quite short in the Sammi reamer,the 170 bergers were nowhere to be seen when I built this rifle but I figure I will be chasing the lands anyway once I’m done with the Nosler’s.

    27 nosler brass

    I’ve been running the Saami spec 27 nosler for over a year but I’m yet to put some 170’s through it,I found such a great load(1/2 moa)for the 150ablr that I will wait until they are finished,the last 3 shots off the magneto read 3342,3339 & 3339.Powder was AR2225,I think it’s the retumbo...

    Hunting bullet recommendation for short barreled 308

    I have hunted with two shorty 308's mainly hogs and deer and nothing can beat the accuracy of 8208 XBR with a 155gr bullet,I think 160 gr might be the limit with this powder though.

    So what are you guys running on your lightweight rifles?

    I went through this recently and chose the Leupold vx3iwith CDS and I have been very impressed to say the least.I haven't owned a Leupold in a lot of years,but I'm back,I have swaro z5's here and I would never pay double for one again.Go for the wind plex reticle.

    No more Matrix .277 165 gr.

    That's a real bummer,we(270) shooters nearly had it all,if the bergers don't shoot it's back to slim pickings.I have really tried with the 150lrab but have found them inconsistent in my rifle,1/2 moa one day poo the next!I may have been driving them too quick.Ill try the bergers in the next few...

    270-300 Win Mag now feasible

    That's a great group,would be my first choice too.I have a box of the 140 CE but have never tried them before.Is the band in if the bullet outside of the case neck on your load?

    270-300 Win Mag now feasible

    It's great fun to shoot,I did try 5 loads with VV570 just to check for pressure and it's like a shot of NOS> that powder, adds 100fps!! A longer barrel would net some more speed but my rifle is a lighter weight at 6lb 8oz.
